CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S)

This application claims the priority benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2015-0168855, filed on Nov. 30, 2015 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a thermoplastic resin composition and a molded article manufactured therefrom, more particularly to a thermoplastic resin composition exhibiting superior colorability, fluidity, scratch resistance, heat resistance, and weatherability and a molded article manufactured therefrom.

BACKGROUND ART

Recently, electric and electronic products are required to have high housing quality as well as superior performance. Accordingly, research into materials that allow superior mechanical properties, such as superior scratch resistance and impact strength, and improvement of emotional quality related to appearance characteristics, such as gloss and black impression, of a product housing is actively underway.

With regard to this, an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (hereinafter referred to as “ABS”) copolymer, an ABS resin, is considered as a representative resin having both functionality and versatility and provides superior impact strength, tensile strength, elastic modulus, flame resistance, and the like. Accordingly, an ABS resin is widely used as a material for automobile components, various electric and electronic components, and the like. However, such an ABS resin is easily scratched during injection molding or in use and has difficulty in expressing high-quality color. In addition, when an ABS resin is exposed to UV rays for a certain period or more, the double bonds of butadiene rubber are decomposed by oxygen in the air, ozone, light, and the like, and thus, discoloration easily occurs. Accordingly, an ABS resin has a drawback such as poor weatherability.

To overcome such disadvantages of an ABS resin, surfaces of products are generally painted or coated. However, such painting or coating method entails subsequent processes, which results in productivity decrease problems such as complicated operation and an increase in a defect rate. In addition, it is difficult to recycle products manufactured therefrom.

Meanwhile, as scratch resistant-materials not requiring processes such as painting, coating, and the like, polymethyl methacrylate (hereinafter referred to as “PMMMA”), an acrylic resin, and the like providing superior colorability and gloss are mainly used. However, a PMMA resin exhibits low impact resistance and poor injection moldability. In addition, when a scratch resistant-material, a methyl methacrylate-acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene resin (hereinafter referred to as “transparent ABS resin”), is used, colorability, gloss, impact resistance, and the like are satisfactory, but hardness and flexural modulus are poor. Accordingly, problems, such as scratch resistance decrease and deformation during molding, may occur.

Therefore, there is an urgent need for a resin that provides superior colorability, fluidity, scratch resistance, heat resistance, and weatherability.
